Batgirl investigated
a bookstore fire where a new book's author, editor, and printer
were killed. Every outlet for the book (publisher, warehouse,
etc.) had been destroyed. Oracle learned of an advanced copy that
made it to a library. When Batgirl got there, someone was already
searching it out. After a brief struggle, she learned it was some
sort of robot. The librarian found the book for Batgirl and
realized it was a manual on the assassin robot. Batgirl went back
in to hold it off while the librarian looked for the self destruct
command. She found it and was knocked out before she could say it.
Batgirl had to have the robot read it since she still could not
read. Barbara apologized for the incident, and Batgirl later
encountered Spoiler - Batman had fired her as Robin. |
